Ingredients

  • 3 ½ ounces superfine sugar
  • 2 ounces butter
  • 6 dessert apples
  • 2 T butter plus a bit extra for brushing dough
  • 11.2 ounces puff pastry

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° (175° C).
  • Heat the sugar and butter over medium heat until it turns golden brown. Be careful not to burn.
  • Peel and halve the apples, scooping out the seeds with a spoon.
  • Place the apples in the caramel and cook, moving them around so all are covered in sauce, for about 10 minutes.
  • In a 9 inch oven ready dish, place apples rounded side down, filling in gaps with cut apples.
  • Dot with small pieces of butter.
  • Roll the pasty dough out into a circle slightly larger than the pan, about .02 (5mm) inches thick.
  • Place the pastry circle over the apples, tucking in the edges all around the dish.
  • Brush with melted butter.
  • Bake 30-40 minutes or until pastry is golden brown and caramel is starting to ooze from the tart.
  • Let cool for about 1 hour before serving. It will smell so good this will be hard to do!
  • Use a plate to carefully turn over tarte. I placed it back in the pan as I thought it looked pretty for serving.
